I see in treesit.el that we set forward-sexp-function to
treesit-forward-sexp when treesit-sexp-type-regexp is set by the major
mode.  For languages with simple grammars, like C, I think that the
current approach that uses the syntax table is simpler and less prone to
errors, because the Tree-sitter function is general and should work for
every language.  I'd suggest we don't define treesit-sexp-type-regexp in
c-ts-mode, at least for C.

For languages like TypeScript, whose grammar is more complex, perhaps
forward-sexp does not work very well and using Tree-sitter to implement
it gives better results with code that is simpler to understand.

Thanks.
